< Mika 3 >

1 Afei mekaa sɛ, “Montie, mo Yakob ntuanofoɔ, mo sodifoɔ a mowɔ Israel efie. Ɛsɛ sɛ mohunu deɛ ɛyɛ atɛntenenee,
And Y seide, Ye princis of Jacob, and duykis of the hous of Israel, here. Whether it be not youre for to knowe doom, whiche haten good,
2 Mo a mokyiri deɛ ɛyɛ na modɔ bɔne moworɔ me nkurɔfoɔ wedeɛ na motete ɛnam no firi wɔn nnompe ho;
and louen yuele? Whiche violentli taken awei the skynnes of hem fro aboue hem, and the fleisch of hem fro aboue the bonys of hem.
3 mowe me nkurɔfoɔ nam, mowae wɔn wedeɛ, bubu wɔn nnompe mu nketenkete; motwitwa wɔn sɛ ɛnam a mode regu kwansɛn mu.”
Whiche eeten the fleisch of my puple, and hiliden the skyn of hem fro aboue; and broken togidere the boonys of hem, and kittiden togidere as in a cawdroun, and as fleisch in the myddil of a pot.
4 Afei wɔbɛsu afrɛ Awurade, nanso ɔrennye wɔn so. Saa ɛberɛ no ɔde nʼanim bɛsie wɔn, bɔne a wɔayɛ enti.
Thanne thei schulen crie to the Lord, and he schal not here hem; and he schal hide hise face fro hem in that tyme, as thei diden wickidli in her fyndingis.
5 Deɛ Awurade seɛ nie: “Adiyifoɔ a wɔdaadaa me nkurɔfoɔ no deɛ, obi ma wɔn biribi di a wɔpae mu ka asomdwoeɛ nsɛm, na sɛ wɔamma wɔn biribi anni a, adiyifoɔ no siesie wɔn ho sɛ wɔbɛtu wɔn so sa.
The Lord God seith these thingis on the profetis that disseyuen my puple, and biten with her teeth, and prechen pees; and if ony man yyueth not in the mouth of hem ony thing, thei halewen batel on hym.
6 Enti adeɛ bɛsa mo a morennya anisoadehunu, esum bɛduru mo a morennya ahintasɛm biara. Owia bɛtɔ ama adiyifoɔ no, na adekyeɛ bɛdane esum ama wɔn.
Therfor niyt schal be to you for visioun, or profesie, and derknessis to you for dyuynacioun; and sunne schal go doun on the profetis, and the dai schal be maad derk on hem.
7 Adepɛmuhunufoɔ ani bɛwu na wɔbɛgu nsamanfrɛfoɔ anim ase. Wɔn nyinaa bɛkatakata wɔn anim, ɛfiri sɛ mmuaeɛ biara mfiri Onyankopɔn hɔ mma.”
And thei schulen be confoundid that seen visiouns, and dyuynours schulen be confoundid, and alle schulen hile her cheris, for it is not the answer of God.
8 Nanso me deɛ tumi ahyɛ me ma, Awurade Honhom ahyɛ me ma tenenee ne ahoɔden a mede bɛpae mu aka Yakob amumuyɛ ne Israel bɔne.
Netheles Y am fillid with strengthe of Spirit of the Lord, and in doom and vertu, that Y schewe to Jacob his greet trespas, and to Israel his synne.
9 Montie, mo Yakob efie ntuanofoɔ, mo a moyɛ Israel sodifoɔ, a mokyiri atɛntenenee na mokyea deɛ ɛtene nyinaa;
Here these thingis, ye princes of the hous of Jacob, and domesmen of the hous of Israel, whiche wlaten dom, and peruerten alle riyt thingis;
10 Mo a mode mogyahwiegu kyekyeree Sion ne awurukasɛm kyekyeree Yerusalem.
whiche bilden Sion in bloodis, and Jerusalem in wickidnesse.
11 Nʼadikanfoɔ no gye adanmudeɛ ansa na wabu atɛn, nʼasɔfoɔ gye sika ansa na wɔakyerɛkyerɛ, nʼadiyifoɔ de nkɔmhyɛ ayɛ sikapɛ. Nanso wɔdan Awurade, na wɔka sɛ, “Awurade nni yɛn ntam anaa? Ɔhaw biara remma yɛn so.”
Princes therof demyden for yiftis, and prestis therof tauyten for hire, and profetis therof dyuyneden for money; and on the Lord thei restiden, and seiden, Whether the Lord is not in the myddil of us? yuelis schulen not come on vs.
12 Na mo enti, wɔbɛfuntum Sion te sɛ afuo, Yerusalem bɛyɛ mmubuiɛ, na asɔredan no kokoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ nkɔfie a nkyɛkyerɛ afu wɔ so.
For this thing bi cause of you, Sion as a feeld schal be erid; and Jerusalem schal be as an heep of stoonys, and the hil of the temple schal be in to hiye thingis of woodis.
